i gots grass!

I had to use that title. As I was walking into Lowes the other day, a woman came running out to the truck yelling, “they gots raspberry bushes!!” :)
Well, I gots grass! Real live grass!



I first saw it at Miss Holly’s last year and wanted to try it this spring, so I some wheat, soaked it overnight, put it on top of some potting soil in various containers and it was sprouting in a few days. We kept it moist with a spray bottle of water. If you don’t have wheat on hand, you can try regular grass seed, or pick up some wheat at a local health food store or on Ebay. It’s perfect and LIVE for spring. This basket is my favorite because I used more wheat and it came up nice and lush. It hasn’t even been a week yet~look how fast it came up!
  These are also fun, but a little more sparse. The Easter Bunny may even hide some eggs in there. I want to try some in my big white wooden tray. Remember bunny from last year?? She likes the grass too.  Since I have a train table in the middle of my living room right now, Thomas and Percy seem to always find their way to the grass as well.

As far as other spring decor, I really haven’t done much this year with all that’s going on around here, but I did throw some moss and eggs in some mercury glass containers from Christmas clearance.   Happy Wednesday!
